ABSTRACT
This chapter examines how urban spatial arrangements and strategies both reflect and influence ethnonationalism. It explores the foundations and consequences of segregated neighborhoods (including the construction of urban “peacelines” that divide ethnonational communities and flagging as a territorial marking practice) to understand how urban space perpetuates ethnic enclaving in what many have described as apartheid in Northern Ireland. It concludes with a reflection of how spatial cleavages and territorial marking foster continued divisions among Northern Irish communities.
